Although the majority of people will develop at least one pimple during the course of their lives, chronic acne is an embarrassing problem that can be frustrating and difficult to treat. One of the most common headaches involved with the treatment of acne is the irritation that often occurs as a side effect. To produce results for acne-prone complexions, most skin care collections contain powerful ingredients that over-dry the tissue in an effort to unclog the pores. As a result, the skin becomes inflamed, red, flaky and dry, leading to more embarrassment for those who have been struggling to hide pimples.

For acne sufferers who have found it difficult to treat blemishes without compromising the health of their complexions, La Roche Posay Effaclar Products offer a solution. The formulas in the La Roche Posay Effaclar Products collection are highly effective and clinically shown to eliminate skin congestion, shrink the pores and promote the healing of acne. In addition, the La Roche Posay Effaclar Products are formulated to replenish moisture levels and soothe the tissue to prevent unwanted skin irritation.

Additional La Roche Posay Products Information

Intended for those with very oily and congested skin, La Roche Posay Effaclar Deep Cleansing Foaming Cleanser gently removes dirt and oil from the surface of the skin and deep within the pores with coco-glucoside. This surfactant fully eliminates the impurities that can lead to infections in the pores and the appearance of blemishes. Glycerin present in the cleanser protects the skin and prevents the irritation and dehydration that are common during acne treatment.

The La Roche Posay Effaclar Toner Astringent Lotion uses lipohydroxy acid to lift away dry, dead skin cells from the outermost layer of skin. By helping the skin shed these cells, the toner lessens the likelihood of the pore blockages that can trigger acne blemishes. Capryloyl salicylic acid present in the toner helps to remove dirt from the pores and shrink their size, making them less visible on the complexion.

The Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel is a daily facial cleanser for those with combination and oily skin that is prone to acne. The cleanser contains two surfactants that work together to purify the complexion. Zinc PCA is also included in the cleanser to balance moisture levels and condition the skin to keep it healthy, nourished, hydrated and soft during acne treatment. To prevent irritation and skin congestion, the gel is free of alcohol, soap and oil.
